Save and restore vector registers in x86-64 ld.so
This patch adds SSE, AVX and AVX512 versions of _dl_runtime_resolve and _dl_runtime_profile, which save and restore the first 8 vector registers used for parameter passing. elf_machine_runtime_setup selects the proper _dl_runtime_resolve or _dl_runtime_profile based on _dl_x86_cpu_features. It avoids race condition caused by FOREIGN_CALL macros, which are only used for x86-64. Performance impact of saving and restoring 8 vector registers are negligible on Nehalem, Sandy Bridge, Ivy Bridge and Haswell when ld.so is optimized with SSE2. [BZ #15128] * sysdeps/x86_64/Makefile [$(subdir) == elf] (tests): Add ifuncmain8. (modules-names): Add ifuncmod8. ($(objpfx)ifuncmain8): New rule. * sysdeps/x86_64/dl-machine.h: Include <dl-procinfo.h> and <cpuid.h>. (elf_machine_runtime_setup): Use _dl_runtime_resolve_sse, _dl_runtime_resolve_avx, or _dl_runtime_resolve_avx512, _dl_runtime_profile_sse, _dl_runtime_profile_avx, or _dl_runtime_profile_avx512, based on HAS_ARCH_FEATURE. * sysdeps/x86_64/dl-trampoline.S: Rewrite. * sysdeps/x86_64/dl-trampoline.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/x86_64/ifuncmain8.c: New file. * sysdeps/x86_64/ifuncmod8.c: Likewise. * sysdeps/x86_64/nptl/tcb-offsets.sym (RTLD_SAVESPACE_SSE): Removed. * sysdeps/x86_64/nptl/tls.h (__128bits): Removed. (tcbhead_t): Change rtld_must_xmm_save to __glibc_unused1. Change rtld_savespace_sse to __glibc_unused2. (RTLD_CHECK_FOREIGN_CALL): Removed. (RTLD_ENABLE_FOREIGN_CALL): Likewise. (RTLD_PREPARE_FOREIGN_CALL): Likewise. (RTLD_FINALIZE_FOREIGN_CALL): Likewise.
